I made a simple circular saw cutting guide that serves both as a straight cutting guide as well as a crosscut jig. The build is solid, it doesn't cost much, you'll need a circular saw to build it and you can use it for a lot of workshop projects. The cutting guide lets you cut straight cuts, cross cuts, small pieces and other. You will need only few things to make this simple diy tool - plywood, aluminium angles and a circular saw. The circular saw guide is simple to make and it will help you with many projects. Watch the entire video for a step by step guide how to make such a circular saw cutting jig.

Inspiration comes from many places - a similar nice video by 夕焼けぼっちch

HOW TO MAKE A CIRCULAR SAW GUIDE | DIY CIRCULAR SAW CROSSCUT JIG

I started out by cutting the plywood for the saw guide. Designed the jig and cut off wood surplus to make the saw guide lighter. Cut 2 aluminium angles - one that serves for straight long cuts and the other one for crosscuts. I used a two sided tape and screws to fix the angles and made sure the angles are at 90°. Attached a handle to the jig for easier manipulation and fixed an anti-slip tape on the bottom to prevent the cutting guide from slipping.

Tips:
- Fix the straight guide rail and then cut off the extra wood
- Make sure the height of the guide rail does not block the circular saw from moving
- Attach anti-slip adhesive threads on the bottom to prevent the jig from sliding
- Drill in holes at the base of the jig for better grip while cross-cutting
